Brett Boje

Brett Michael Boje made his last wildly inappropriate and probably sarcastic comment on June 2, 2017. Brett was born on May 24, 1982 and was immediately dubbed “His Parents’ Favorite Son”. Their constant love, support and caring far exceeded anything Brett would ever admit he needed. Brett had three passions in his life: his daughter Aspen, who he affectionately named “Monkey”, his friends and farming. Whether it was the cab of the tractor, pickup, semi, or combine he always had “Monkey” riding shotgun. He taught her his love of John Deere, country music, fishing, four-wheeling, camping, family and friends. While getting Aspen ready for school each day they would sing “I got my lunch packed up, my boots tied tight, hope I don’t get in a fight.” Brett lived life to the fullest and was always up for a good time, he rarely met a person that he couldn’t befriend. His many adventures with his friends would often culminate in a nickname or coined phrase. He was always joking with people, often telling them they looked “hideous” or quoting Adam Sandler movies from the 90’s. However, if the joke ever turned on him he’d follow it up with his famous quote… “Go ahead, laugh it up.” Whether he was working or playing, he loved spending time outside. He loved co-ed softball, the lake, fishing, hunting, and snowmobiling. When not outdoors, he enjoyed watching movies, as well as the Golden State Warriors and the Montana Griz, but then again who doesn’t, well everyone except Steph. He was always on the hunt for a “good deal” and told everyone he met, that they needed to buy a Traeger. He absolutely loved Ford, but for some reason recently crossed over to the dark side. He was an avid hunter, tracking down anything from coyotes, pheasants to Gummy bears. Brett is survived by his daughter Aspen, dog (Lellow), cat (Woody), parents (Gary “Boj” and Vic Boje) all from Glendive, MT, his much older sister (Jen “nanny and our parents care giver”) and her much better half (Jon Byrd) from Whythehelldoyoulivethere “Evergreen, CO” and now the baby of the family, (Tai’a Boje) stationed somewhere in the US, nieces & nephews (Cooper, Conner, Abby, Emily & Kian), Grandparents (Norma Schultz) from Richey, MT and (Floyd and Pat Boje) from Glendive, MT, a multitude of aunts, uncles, cousins, and several Sally’s, Vern’s, and Buttcracks (aka his “Deere”est friends), complete the list of those left to embellish his memory. If pressed, we may even get half a dozen of these folks to speak fondly of him. Great Uncle (Tom Boje) has already fired up the Traeger, Grandma (Carolyn) has filled the freezer, Aunt (Shari) has already fixed his hair cut, Grandpa (Bob “Chuckie”) is waiting in the car and “Deere” friend, (Brandon Cullinan) has mapped out all the back roads. A “Deere” Friends and Family Celebration will be held on Thursday June 8th at 7:00 p.m. at the Makoshika Amphitheatre. We will be turning the light on for the last time for Brett on Friday June 9 at 2:00 p.m. at the Zion Lutheran Church in Glendive with Pastor Will Johnson officiating. Silha Funeral Home of Glendive has been entrusted with the arrangements. We all know Brett didn’t like waiting for anyone, so whatever you do don’t be late!! As we all know, Brett wouldn’t spend a dime on flowers. With that said, in lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the Aspen Grace Boje Trust fund at US Bank. “I really miss you Dad, Love you. Lellow misses you too. Love you to the moon & back” - Aspen “The way I see it, we’ve only just begun…” – Happy Gilmore & Brett Remembrances and condolences may be shared with the family at: www.silhafuneralhomes.com
